BookStack

BookStack is a simple, self-hosted platform for organising and storing information in a hierarchical structure of Books, Chapters, and Pages.

Dependencies

• MySQL - Database for storing content and users
• SMTP - For email notifications and password resets

Configuration

Key settings in config.yaml:

• domain - Where BookStack will be accessible
• storage - Persistent volume size (default: 2Gi)
• db.name - Database name (default: bookstack)
• smtp - Email settings inherited from your Wild Cloud SMTP service

First-Time Setup

1. Add and deploy the app:

   wild app add bookstack
   wild app deploy bookstack
   

2. Log in with the default admin credentials:

   • Email: admin@admin.com
   • Password: password

3. Immediately change the admin email and password via Settings → Your Profile.

4. Start creating Books, Chapters, and Pages from the dashboard.

Notes

• BookStack uses the linuxserver.io image which runs as root internally — this is expected and required for the image to function
• SMTP settings are configured via the smtp section in your config
• The appKey secret is auto-generated and used for encrypting data — do not change it after content has been created
